Which is honestly not an unreasonable thing for Calibre to do.

I tested by using http://test1.com?sid=6[-1], then http://test1.com?sid=6[-2], http://test1.com?sid=6[-3], etc to simulate updates.

BTW, I've fond of the mark_new_chapters setting to mark newly downloaded chapters. Especially useful if new chapters are inserted in the middle.

Code:
## If true, when updating an epub that already has old chapters, new
## chapters will be marked in the TOC and chapter header by using
## chapter_title_new_pattern and chapter_title_addnew_pattern to set
## the chapter title.
## If set to latestonly, only new chapters downloaded this time will
## be marked (new) and existing chapters will have any (new) marks
## removed.
## mark_new_chapters can be true, false or latestonly
mark_new_chapters:true
